It's UAE law which will govern the wages, terms and conditions for employment of a foreign worker. The employer of a foreign worker is typically responsible for 100% of any necessary medical care while the worker is in the foreign country. If you are being transferred to Sharjah, check with your employer about whether you can obtain visas for a housemaid. Your employment contract may prohibit you from hiring foreign workers and bringing them to the country where you are being assigned. Your company does not want to be held liable for your housemaid! Since you are not a company and not a citizen of the UAE, you may have difficulty obtaining a visa for household employee. Also, middle eastern recruiters have a bad rep in Indonesia. Many housemaids brought from Indon or Phil. to the ME have been abused, and both Indon & Phil have restrictions on maids going to a number of countries. I don't know if UAE is currently on their "list" or not. If you do succeed in getting your maid a visa to UAE, remember you are liable for the Indonesian exit tax. Not sure if it is still Rp. 150,000.

How is the situation of Malaysia if all Indon maids run back to Indonesia

How is the situation of Malaysia if all Indon maids run back to Indonesia?
I understand they receive the least salary working in Malaysia compare to the other countries. I understand we Malaysian can't afford also to pay them high salary as the other country citizens. I am talking about Indon maids, female, you know. not the Indon guys lah. Would it be disastrous to Malaysian women? Or they can kick Malaysian husbands to kitchen?

Either get maids from Myanmar or Sri Lanka, whose salaries are affordable or every employer gets properly briefed before getting them. Employers should be educated or literate too, besides being reasonable. A better system should be thought out by the government and not left to the employment agencies who are out there just to make fast bucks. Just a thought.

the boss will have no cheap labour

don't worry, i am ready to be your maid

sure that is correct, we malaysian are not that rich

malaysia become clean, no jenayah no robbery, thanks to indons clearance in malaysia

You mention salary, I do not think that is the issue because maids from other countries like from the Philippines working in Hong Kong or Taiwan also face same issue like we have in Malaysia. I can say should Indon maids run back to Indonesia, we can try hiring from Timor Leste. I do not think it would be disastrous because Malaysian women will have one less problem to worry when they are not at home leaving their spouse all by himself.

It is not easy for an unskilled worker, but many people manage to do so. You should contact immigration.govt.nz and see if there are any work areas NZ needs. If not you may still be able to get it if you have a talent in arts/culture/sport. Otherwise you might be able to get a temporary workers permit but you need to contact them and discuss it with them.
